Mar 17, 2007 Imperial pint draft at Floyds. British? Hah! Despite assurances it’s got all British ale hops, it’s still at the usual 3F’s strength: a rush of lime, pineapple, pine tree and cat box. A lovely brown English beer color, though, just a bit hazy with a light scrum of foam. Hop hit is cheek by jowl to a hearty English malt bill, sweet and chewy as a fresh baked cookie. Nelson’s body could have preferred to be shipped home in a barrel of this, instead of French brandy!

Mar 7, 2007 NotLA3. i really liked this. definitely didn’t think it was an ESB... awesome beer, really took to the cask well. really hoppy, but not traditional west coast hops. citrusy without being real sharp. the flavor wasn’t as hoppy and was quite well balanced.

Mar 5, 2007 Well, I won’t bash this like everyone else did. I actually voted this at 3rd place. it’s true, it was very hoppy. i’m surprised they got such a citrusy aroma from fuggles. it was a little watery but it was good. I’m surprised that’s it’s listed as an ESB. seemed like an IPAto me.

Jul 1, 2007 On tap at the brewpub. Slightly hazy copper body with a large creamy off-white head. Strong sweet citrus hops aroma with a tea-like maltiness in the background. Sweet citrus and grassy hops flavor with some light caramel. Very easy to drink.

Apr 2, 2007 On tap at 3F. Poured a clear, deeper amber with 1" of creamy off-white head.. sticky lacing followed it down. The aroma found soft caramel with heavy floral hoppage.. some pineapple too.. sweet and alluring. Flavor was of a hella-hopped bitter... soft caramel, toffee, and light fruity sweetness (peach, pineapple, and mango) base with a juicy bitterness surrounding... lingering floral and fruity bitterness at the finish. Medium-bodied.. smooth, sweeter base was well-balanced with all the bitterness around it. Good stuff!
